Why is marijuana illegal...no seriously.... why is it illegal?

Question

First of all let me say Don't knock it till you've tried it. Most of you people are giving your opinion on something you know absolutely nothing about. You've been brainwashed and fed lies from the US government and your parents since you were a kid, and I'm sure the majority of you still are. There's nothing that can't be made from hemp aka marijuana but like someone said before, it can't be taxed because it all started off as a racist law against minorities who used it to relax after a long day of work they were forced to do by the white man. When fights broke out they banned marijuana believing this was the root of their hostility. Same thing with the mexican workers that came into this country in the 1930's. See what I'm getting at? For 4 million years no human has ever been able to tell you what you can or cannot put into your system at your own free will until the 1930's or 40's. I think someone else pointed out that marijuana has more effects at curing ailments and diseases than any plant known to man but big greedy medical companies know that they'd lose alooooooooot of money if this plant was legalized. There are only 2 plants known to man that have all the necessary amino acids humans need: the first, wheat. The second, marijuana. We've used it before Jesus walked this earth for food, clothing, rope, and just to smoke for religious practices. Speaking of religion, if God put it here...why the HELL aren't we taking advantage of this all natural wonder-plant?? Sure other so called drugs were put here like cocaine, opium, barbituates, and stimulants but marijuana is the ONLY thing you can take right off the plant, dry and use. I think it's a ****** up system that we live in where people are actually listening to a government that's already been proven wrong since the start of this so called 'war on drugs'. There's gotta be something better to be worried about than what somebody's doing in the privacy of there own home...hey i know, what about this WAR ON TERROR. We have enough nuclear weapons on this planet to destroy this world 13 times over and we don't even know where the majority of these bombs are thanks to the BUSH ADMINISTRATION... it's all goin up in smoke! But that's a differen't story. All I'm saying is in my opinion marijuana is a blessing and not a curse. Do your homework, kids before you go and say something like " Smoking a joint is equal to smoking a pack of ciggaretts". Where the **** did you ever hear that? obviously someone that can't back it up. Haters! Speaking of health, sure, smoking anything isn't healthy but it's not even close to smoking cigarretts which are full of godknows what!! A vaporizer can be used which has been scientifically proven not to have ANY negative side effects. pure THC! This government will regulate out alcohol which makes you lose control of all motor skills and your thought process. This nation's major income comes from the tax on alcohol and cigarretts....hmmmmm, no wonder they don't ban those. TOO MUCH MONEY! and to think people actually listen to this government. One more thing I have to point out: I don't know if any of you has seen that one commercial where a scribbly drawn man is smoking a joint and his girlfriend tells him she doesn't like him doing that...so an alien comes and abducts her and steals her for his own. ..........uh........who's on drugs now? So if I am to smoke weed, are you saying that an alien will steal my gf? What the ****. I don't understand why if weed is so bad, why don't they just give you the facts about WHY it is bad instead of avoiding the truth or beating around the bush. I'm all for legalizing marijuana. I don't believe in any man telling me what or what I can't do with my own body or life. It's a ****** up world that we live in, man.

Oh yea, when you respond, tell me WHY YOU THINK it is illegal, ok?

Answer 2

of direction marijuana is risky. Any narcotic has unwell consequences. besides the fact that, that's not extra or much less risky than cigarettes or alcohol. the clarification america government would not legalize marijuana is via the fact it would be very severe priced and violent to modify it at this element. there are such lots of "unfastened marketplace" venues to offer and sell marijuana that it would take a defense force of infantrymen an prolonged time to have the form of administration they have like they have over cigarettes and alcohol. in case you haven't any longer observed, you may no longer strengthen or sell tobacco in this us of a. that's a federal offense to additionally be in possession of tobacco seeds. that's virtually an identical with alcohol. (you will possibly be able to make your very own wine and beer in very small parts on your very own very own intake, yet no longer no longer hassle-free liquor) in short, the clarification Uncle Sam would not legalize it extremely is via the fact it would be too no longer hassle-free for him to tax and modify it at this element, and to accomplish that may well be an costly, violent, activity.

Answer 3

I think it is illegal because the government can get more money by confiscating peoples money houses cars etc. etc. than they could by collecting taxes from the sale of it. By the way your penis will fall off if you smoke more on Tuesday than you do on Thursday
